Possbily Buying An 09' Iq Of A Mate

[lee1981]

Hi all first post here been lurking a bit. My mate is selling his 09' model iq 2. about 45k on clock, don't think he has any issue yet as described on here EGR etc, and not known of them as wisely did not browse fourms I don't think lol.

As with any car/motorbike there are problems and they are always more noted on forums as peeps want help.

Is there anything else major to look out for? I guess EGR is old one as seen in pics in another be ok if there's no problem with pulling away now?

It has good spec, leather, climate control, keyless entry though that worries it going wrong but guess just use mechanical key then? folding mirrors and tonnaue cover.

looking at around 3.5k to pay good price?

Also would look to do own servicing as well out of warranty now and not sure if mate has had it serviced at main dealer or smaller garage. Is there a manual available ?

Are basics simple enough?

Thanks

Regards

Lee.

People like Haynes haven't done workshop manuals for recent Toyotas. There is

http://www.toyota-tech.eu

where one can download information, some of which is chargeable and some free.

Certainly the information I've accessed is in pdf, but cannot guarantee it all is

There won't be any major issues with the IQ, mines is a 59 plate and has covered 65,000 miles. You'll need to change the spark plugs every 60k miles and I've heard it's a real pain to change them.
